Even the most pro gay marriage people will insult others by calling them faggots, or refer to someone like Justin Bieber as extremely gay, or say the gayness level of some clothes is very high - These insults are not directed towards gay people, but they indirectly associate homosexuality with offensive phrases - What do you guys think about this? Do you think people (pro gay marriage ones) should stop saying Oh that's gay! as something with a negative meaning? Do gay people get offended at this? - These expressions are so deeply recorded in society that it's hard to let them go away

I think gay jokes are ok as much as jokes about black people, as long as they're funny, I wouldn't mind an atheist joke too if it was amusing.

I like jokes that are funny. I like dark humor. I think context is important. Like if it's a joke thread then you know people are joking and it's funny. Or if it's a comedy show then yea. If it's a funeral maybe not, but I'd still have a hard time not finding it amusing if the joke is legitimately funny. My sister says "that's so gay" when she thinks something is stupid or lame all the time, she's a lesbian, I'm pretty sure she's not offended by it.

Jewish people telling Jewish jokes is fine, there were plenty of Jews at the school I went to and the jokes were OK. Gay people telling gay jokes, black people calling each other the 'n' word, that's all OK. It's when others do it with malicious intent or even without thinking that it becomes insulting. The best thing would be to stay away from it.
